Overview of Gene Research
Trmt61a, along with Trmt6, forms an RNA N1-methyladenosine (m1A)-generating methyltransferase complex. m1A is a post-transcriptional RNA modification that impacts RNA processing, structure, and functions [2,4]. This complex is involved in various biological processes, such as translation regulation, as it can modify tRNA and mRNA, influencing protein synthesis [3,5].
In aged murine hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), the TRMT6-TRMT61A complex increases due to declined CRL4DCAF1-mediated ubiquitination degradation signaling. Enforced TRMT6-TRMT61A impairs HSCs through 3'-tiRNA-Leu-CAG and subsequent RIPK1-RIPK3-MLKL-mediated necroptosis cascade. Necroptosis deficiency ameliorates HSC self-renewal capacity, indicating the complex's non-canonical role in HSC aging [1]. In T cells, conditional deletion of the Trmt61a gene in mouse CD4+ T cells causes MYC protein deficiency and cell cycle arrest, disrupting T cell expansion upon antigen stimulation and alleviating colitis in a mouse model. This shows that Trmt61a-mediated tRNA-m1A58 modification promotes T cell expansion via efficient MYC protein synthesis [3]. In bladder cancer cell lines, depletion of TRMT6/TRMT61A reduces proliferation capacity and cell displacement, and compromises cell survival after induction of cellular stress, suggesting an oncogenic role in bladder cancer [6].
In summary, Trmt61a, as part of the TRMT6-TRMT61A complex, plays crucial roles in regulating processes like HSC function, T cell expansion, and cancer cell behavior. Gene knockout and conditional knockout mouse models have been instrumental in revealing its functions in HSC aging, T cell-mediated pathogenesis, and bladder cancer, providing insights into potential therapeutic targets for related diseases [1,3,6].
